Sato sprayed perfume on me at the individual handshake event! (laughs) When I got into the booth, she started off by spraying once at my stomach, once at herself, and finally rolling up my sleeve and spraying my wrist, too. (laughs) What the…??? (laughs) Whatever. Now I stink like her perfume. (laughs)

Maa: “Ah, it’s you!!”Me: “Everyone’s saying their hands smell good after shaking hands with you. Are you wearing perfume?”Me: “Yep!!”
She then showed me the perfume she had stashed away at the side of the table. (laughs) Since she looked like she was about to spray me, I willfully presented her with my right wrist and she then excitedly sprayed it. (laughs)Me: “Thanks. (laughs)”

[Sayashi 1st session]Me: “Maa-chan’s calling you names like “scatterbrain” and “Ponyo” all the time!”Sayashi: “I know! (laughs)”Me: “But isn’t she saying stuff like that an especially lot as of late? (laughs)”Sayashi: “She so is! Even though I’m her senior! (laughs)”Me: “I’ll scold her by saying she should show proper respect to her seniors, yeah?”Sayashi: “Ah, but… I like it when she teases me. (laughs)”Me: “You like it?! (laughs)”

Musume individual handshakes, Iikubo ③Me: “Be honest: what do you think about the grey T-shirts?”Iikubo: “Ah… It doesn’t look like there’s too many people wearing them, right?”Me: “True. (laughs) Would you even be able to tell someone was your oshi if they were wearing that T-shirt?”Iikubo: “Mmmm… Honestly, I don’t think I would. (laughs)”Me: “Right?!”

Me: “I had fun shaking hands with you again, Maa-chan! I’m going to pray every day that I manage to get a ticket to the birthday event. (laughs)”Maa: “Yep!”Me: “Oh and by the way, don’t touch Kanon-chan’s stomach too much, okay? (laughs)”Maa: “No, (signals at chest) I touch her here. (laughs)”Me: “What!?! That’s even worse! (laughs)”Maa: “Kyahahahaha. (laughs)”

Momusu individual handshakes, chat with Maa-chan:Me: “It’s 7 already. You must be getting tired from all the handshakes.”Maa: “No, not at all!”Maa: “Hey! Do you know what the most delicious thing after shiitake mushrooms is?”Me: “Ummm. Bell pepper maybe?”Maa: “(Does cross mark with arms) Wrong! It’s eringi mushrooms!”Me: “???”

As a completely unrelated bonus, a couple of translated fan reports from a recent Juice=Juice event.

3/16 J=J event. Since humans are said to have evolved from monkeys, Takagi said Katsuta Rina had asked her if she'd failed to evolve.

Henkka: Seeing as most of my previous sources have started posting Twitter fan reports, I thought I’d give it a try as well. Let me know in the comments if you think I should keep doing posts like these, too (in addition to the 2ch stuff of course).

Not first hand, no, although I was actually considering going to that very event since the venue is relatively close to where I currently live. I don’t go to many handshake events since, like some fans, I really don’t have much I want to say to them.

Ah. My bad, I should’ve specified it more clearly. Those were from the second source I listed. And yeah, that °C-ute event worked out pretty well as far as that whole aspect goes. I consider it an exception to the rule. ;)

Hahaha omg these are awesome! I had no idea Rinapuu had such a sharp tongue xD
And I KNEW I heard that mushroom joke somewhere before! If that fan was telling the truth, it just made my day! Also, if you bought that perfume, you’d smell like Maa-chan :P

If you ever get bored of 2ch posts, looks like twitter posts are a great alternative ;)

Hell yes!!!! Keep up the good work, dont matter if its twitter or message boards i love hearing stories about the member….

Just when i thought i had got away, Maa-chan reeled me back in lol… I had just said that Devil Kanatomo threads had become my favorite then Henkka dropped this Maa-chan loaded bomb on me smh…. I’m sorry Maa-chan for ever doubting you, i just got possessed by the Devil Tomo for a bit…Frickin Maa-chan even dropped a Kamei Eri joke, gotta love her for that

Super funny!
And Maa never fails to entertain. Somehow it feels like she was ment to be part of some Anime related, local idol group. Being so outgoing and with all that close wota contact.
I’m happy she ended up in Mosume!

It would be great if you could keep doing the twitter reports too, Henkka!
Thanks for the hard work! :]
It’s always interesting to read the fun and crazy things H!P members do (specially if it’s from Maa-chan and Rose Quartz-sama lol)
Also, I found it cute that Riho actually likes being teased by Maa-chan ^^ She’s a more reserved type of girl, so it was surprising that she admitted it. Their friendship is adorable :3
